What is Japan's traditional color "Chitose Green"?

Chitose Midori, named after the meaning of a green that will remain unchanged even after a thousand years, is a dark green color with a profound feel similar to the green of a pine tree. The pine tree, which has various theories such as "waiting for (God)," "worshiping (God)," and "preserving (green)," is said to be a tree where gods dwell, and is used in folk events and celebrations as a symbol of immortality. It seems like it is. It is also known as an auspicious tree in China as ``Saikan Sanyu'' and in Japan as ``Shochikubai''.

Chitose Green = Senzai Midori

Other readings include ``chitosemidori'' and ``senzairyoku.'' "Chitose Midori" is read as Senzai Midori.
